Welcome aboard Mason.

Here's how I ran mine...link will start you at post 223. You can see where the heavier red wire passes into the cowl side panel in post 248. That black grommet also contains my the power antenna wiring and lead.

I'd run it through the fender apron and kick-panel on the passenger side near where the ECM wire harnes goes...
